Fort Augustus Memorial Hall

The only piece of GW-related material I saw (to my knowledge) during our Scottish voyage.

Apologies for the truncation: the water-level in the lock was sinking rather quickly!

Thank you! That was a while ago! (I left my camera on the yacht we chartered that time - it was returned to me on Friday just past!)

We had the second part of a photographic course there yesterday, I was there early so managed to get apicture with no cars parked in front of the memorial.  Then we finished I saw the red floodlighting but had to wait for a vehicle to move before I could get a picture like that.
